Lucy's Fried Chicken - Austin

The chicken is generally good, although it 's not unusually for a piece or two in a bucket to be overcooked or without enough skin to keep it from getting tough. The sides are mostly misses. The fried okra is okay but the rest all seem to smoked which seems to be some funky in a bad way liquid smoke. It 's hard to believe this is from the same mind and culinary skills and the late and lamented Olivia.

Feels like austin used to be. If you are looking for a text book/sterile dining experience go to Dallas (oops). Order a basket, drink a beer and share the love. This is one of my favorite places to eat ever, simple to the point and lots of character. Food made with love taste different.

The food was delicious. The peanut butter and banana pie was so good! I had chicken friend steak and it was SOOOOOO good! My sister enjoyed the fried chicken that she ordered. The sides were very good. Staff was friendly but very busy so not as attentive as other places but that may just be a staff shortage issue. We will definitely return here to eat again!

Started with onion rings as an appetizer. I do recommend those. I ordered the catfish for my entree. The fish wasn't seasoned at all and the breading on the catfish was way too thick...and also unseasoned. I couldn't even eat half of it because it just wasn't good. My boyfriend got a chicken sandwich and said it had better flavoring than the fish but it didn't match the hype we had heard about this place.

The fried catfish was good a the coating a little crispy and thick. The potatoes and collard greens I did not like. The collard greens are canned greens with a whole lot of vinegar. The mashed potatoes has a weird after taste. My friends had the fried chicken and salad they were satisfied. Overall the atmosphere was good. The hostess was great.
